Mnemonic

While you may have the appearance of someone who is super strong, powerful, and awesome, you do have one shortcoming. You don’t know how to tie (たい) a tie. Actually, you don’t even know how to tie your shoes, let alone your tie. How embarrassing.

Hints

Since you don’t know how to tie a tie or tie your shoes, you wear slip ons and clip ons. Hear the noise of Velcro being undone as you kick off your shoes and unclip your tie after a hard day’s work at the office.
